Instruction: “You are a helpful assistant that creates unique images based on article titles. Create a brief visual description of what an image would look like for this title. Please pick a style of art from the following: Futurism, Impressionism, Romanticism, or Realism, be sure to consider the image should reflect an AI Robot Pirate theme during the Golden Age of Pirates.”
Prompt: In a Realism style, picture Ubisoft’s office as the backdrop. Skyscrapers tower in the background, accented by a golden sunset. In the forefront, a realistic-looking humanoid robot sits at a computer, its face reflecting the glow of the screen. It’s the “NEO NPC”, with a Ubisoft logo on its chest. On the computer screen, a popular Ubisoft game, like Assassin’s Creed, is visible, showing a character controlled by the NEO NPC. The image conveys the harmony between advanced technology and creative gaming.
